RICH HARVEST AWAITS U; S.
TRADE IN SOUTH AMERICA
Bolivia Man WriteB to Local FJrm of
Opportunities.
There Is n Unusual opportunity for
Ameilcnn enterprise to reap a rich harvest
In South Ameilca. This Is the belief of
Stephen P. Smith, a business mnn of
Coohnbnmbn, Bolivia, ns expressed In a
letter tri Reeves, Paivln & Co, 105 South
Front street.
The wnr In Europe has ended nil busi
ness done there hy England,1 Gei many
nnd France, according to. Mr. Smith. Tho
custom houses ore collecting nothing, nnd
the governments arc close to bankruptcy.
Furthermore, great engineering piojecls
nre stopped, he snld, because the con
st! noting companies can ohtnln no money
from their home otllces. As n result,
thnuannds of men nre out of work. '
Tho writer suggests that tho business
men nf Philadelphia, through the Cham
ber of Commirci', take Btcps Immediately
to open markets with South America.
The North American banks, he contendx,
should establish branches In South Amer
ican cities, becauso tho banks thero can
not now give propel facilities for doing
business with the States.
If those Who wish to sell will at the
same time provide buyers for South
American products, ho declares, beneflclul
results w.ll floon follow. Mr. Smith thinks
thero should he more ships Hying the
American ling. Ho thinks that the Eng
lish and German merchant marines, us
far ns South America Is concerned, nie
out of business.
An opportunity to secure cheaper meat
Is alsi pointed out by the writer, who de
clares that Aigentlna can no longer sell
Its cattle products In Europe.

$235,600 in One Day
By Individual Buyers
The day before this is written September 1 5 the sales
made to users on the HUDSON Six-40 were 152 cars. That
is, yesterday buyers of new cars paid out for HUDSONS
$235,600.
The average for the past four weeks is $930,000 per week
because that is the limit of output. We are building and selling
1 00 per day. That is five times as many five times, mark you
as we sold at this season last year.
And we had no war then no talk of war's depression. Our
average sales have more than trebled since this war began.
That Means That Hudsons
Rule This Field Today
In July when we brought out this new model we trebled
our output to cope with demand. Yet on August 1 despite our
best efforts we were 4,000 cars oversold.
We shipped by express nearly 1 ,000 cars to minimize delays.
That's an unprecedented act. But thousands of men waited
weeks for this car, when every rival had cars in plenty. Nothing
else could satisfy a man who once saw this new-model HUDSON
Six-40.
Five Fold Increase an Amazing Thing
Consider this fact: The HUDSON has long been a leading
car. Every model has for years been designed by Howard .
Coffin.
In the HUDSON car Mr. Coffin has brought out all his new
advances. And the demand for his models long before the ad
vent of this HUDSON Six-40 gave HUDSONS the lead in this
field. The first HUDSON Six, inside of one year, became the
largest-selling Six in the world.
T-l 1 1 .1 ii.
i ninK wnac a- car mis must be this new
HUDSON Six-40 to multiply that popularity
by five in one year. And to do it at a time like
this. Think how far it must outrank all the
cars that compete with it. Think
what tremendous appeal it must
make to car buyers
Think what a car is must be when, in times of slow sale3,
men pay $930,000 per week for it. And they would pay more
if we had the cars to deliver. They yesterday bought at the rate
of 50 per cent more cars because 1 52 cars arrived.
The HUDSON Six-40 Now Far Outsells
Any Other Car in the World With
a Price Above $1,200
See the Car That Did It
Howard E. Coffin's Best
Come now and see this model the car whose record is unapproach
ed in the annals of this line. You will see a quality car sold at a price
which is winning men by the thousands from lower-grade cars.
You will see a class car in many respects the finest car of the day
which is sold at one-third what class cars used to cost.
You will see how clever designing and costly materials have saved
about 1,000 pounds in weight. And in this light car the lightest of its
size you will see one of the sturdiest cars ever built. You will see a
new-type motor which has cut down operative cost to about 30 per cent.
You will see new beauties, new ideas in equipment. You will see
new comforts, new conveniences scores of attractions you have never
seen before.
They are all in this masterpiece of Howard E. Coffin, who has long
been the leading American designer. This is his finished ideal of a car
of the man who is conceded to be final authority.
Mr. Coffin has worked for four years on this model. And the whole
HUDSON corps has worked with him 47 able engineers. Part by part,
every detail of this car has been brought to its final refinement.
This ia the coming type. This lightness, this beauty, this economy,
this price are new-day standards which men are demanding. And this
quality Howard E. Coffin's level best is the least that men who know
will take.
Come This Week Sure
Now's the Time to Choose
This is the time to pick out your new car. Next year's models are
out now. You have seen what the field has to offer.
If you buy a class car. this new HI JDSnNJ mv.iin
is the car you'll want. The exclusive features which
have won such an avalanche of favor are bound to
appeal to you.
Come now. because the best touring months are
before you. Don't miss the bright, cool Indian Sum-
